I installed only two zip files; TeamICS-4.0.1-25NOV-HeroC.zip and gapps-ics-4.0.1-small.zip

No tweak or setCPU.

As jaybob mentioned, those are working;

Touchscreen

Phone [call and receive]

Data

WiFi

MMS [send and receive]

Sound [speaker phone and music speak]

SD Card [ok!! but, gallery is not working]

Market [downloading some apps and installing them]

and music.

speed is fine. I think speed will be improved definitely as dev do.

so very impressive!!!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] scataldo721:
very nice rom a little sluggish but this is just alpha cant wait for beta and RC1!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] etstanger:
Installed gapps and ROM, but I can't seem to navigate into the Mobile Network Settings. I keep having to FC Activity Network Settings, which is preventing me from getting data. Any help?

EDIT - I'm also getting "Random offset: 0x214" when I install.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Jurellz:
Thats the problem i have .
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jschill31:
Hello,

Boots fine but I seem to have no radio at all, flashed twice same outcome? WiFi works fine but no cellular signal for either voice or data.

Cheers
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Majin101:
Hmmm? I've ran it twice been using it just to text and call those worked nicely. Also installed es file and setcpu made things ran normally. Only main issue i had was the google maps version didn't show the map
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jschill31:
All it does for me is search for signal. I am using the most current radio as far as I know. I also get the FC whenever I would try to select mobile networks. I did flash gapps and tried to download the replacement keyboard over WiFi and it just sits there doing nothing. I would expect that has something to do with no confirmed carrier. On the lock screen does your register Sprint as the carrier? Still it is killer this boots. This is much further along than expected.

Cheers

edit: Using the .29 radio and have since it came out
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Majin101:
yea says sprint for me
[Hero CDMA Android Development] SirThumpaLot:
Very dope, sirs. As soon as I figure out where I packed my Hero, since I just moved, I will be flashing this for sure. Kudos to you, TeamICS!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] alex_camacho:
I ran this, and it booted up on the first try. Wierd thing though; I thought i had wiped but all my apps got brougt forward to 4.01. So i started deleating all my apps to make room to run. It runs nicely calls, text, internet, all work fine. Market, and gapps do not work for me though, maybe it has to do with all my data being brought up from cyangen. So ill just try again and wipe a few times. Awesome work people.

Update Posted -26-NOV-2011

An update has been posted to the OP.

This adds GPS functionality, and disables loading the currently broken EGL graphics acceleration.

This allows Google Maps to function (although painfully slowly at times).

Also includes bootanimation to make the slow boot process that much more thrilling.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aldude999:
I tried this last night for a few seconds, I couldnt get data or texting to work. didn't go much further as it was slow, but keep up the awesome work!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] sai5o4:
The updated link goes to the alpha release.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jaybob413:
Fixed link in the OP. Apologies for operator error.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] etstanger:
Download the most recent release:

I still am having trouble with getting into the data settings. I get to "Wireless & Networks" and sometimes can tick "Mobile Networks" but once I get that far the whole thing Force Closes on me and I can't enable data.

The phone does say "Sprint" and I have seen my triangle go up to one bar, but I can't make a call either. The phone eventually goes back to "Searching for Service." I tick the call icon and it goes back to what I was doing before. Never places the call.

EDIT - It's quite possible I'm getting all these force-closes because my phone is still syncing. I'll wait a few more minutes and then try.

I just built-in OpenGL 2.0 into my 4.0.3 and it makes no difference. It'll be included in my update but the effect is placebo. What does help is overclocking.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jaybob413:
As the error message shows, ajrty33's issue is due to using the TeamICS vendor tree instead of the Evervolv vendor tree (vendor/ev). If you do a 'lunch ev_heroc-eng' it should build without a problem, you just need to order a la carte, as the combo is not yet on the menu. ;) The lunch combo will need to be added to vendor/ev/vendorsetup.sh for it to show in the lunch menu. I was trying to not make any changes to anything but heroc repos. Figured that when mongoosehelix gets a chance he can add it to the menu.

If you are building another 4.0.3 variant (CM9/AOSP), you can use the TeamICS vendor tree to build, although you will also need to patch or cherry-pick some of our other fixes that were integrated into Evervolv sources. I have build all three variants (plus a few others), but did not work through which patches and changes are needed for each.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] hugabu:
ok. I found that if I put in OpenGL 2.0 and used the "Force GPU Rendering" option in the developer options under settings, it seemed to help with the speed a little.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] NineInchNails:
I'm still not convinced til I dig deeper
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Hammerfest:
Using CM9 on my Tablet right now... I have to say I might not like the launcher at all, but I have always loved CM9 over ASOP...

just hope they fix the bugs... would love to see CM9 on all my devices :D

Anywho, removing this thread from my bookmarks for MattCrystal's thread!

See you all on the flip side :P
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aldude999:
Some stuff I've noticed:

I can't get my PC to recognize debug

Apps made for ICS aren't in the market (Play Music, Chrome)

I'm not able to enable file transfer

Having problems with reading and writing to the SDcard

Other than these minor problems, I'm having a fun time showing off this ROM! Keep up the great work!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] goliath714:
As far as the market apps go, they wont recognize because the device itself has a signature. Changing the ROM doesn't change the device, so apps like Earth, Play Music, Car Home, Chrome, Firefox, etc. wont work because the app itself does not allow for our hardware to run. They aren't made for ICS specifically, they're made for higher end phones. In order to make them run, the devs would have to take apart and reconstruct every app to make it run on ARMv6 devices, which they won't do, because it requires an extreme amount of time, which they've already spent on making the ROM itself. There is an apk for google play music on xda already that works, just download that. Otherwise you'll just have to wait til you get a new phone with a newer processor. As far as the other problems go, make sure you have debug turned on from the phone, and try the cache sizing for sd cards found here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1010767

Oh and here's the thread for the Google Play Music apk:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1533816
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aldude999:
Thank you for your response! When I put CyanogenMod on my phone all the google apps show up so I guess I just expected it. I have tried multiple times to turn on and off the debugging on the phone but nothing works. It just doesn't show up in the device manager. It's not that the SD card is slow, its that sometimes it says it's not mounted and I'll have to pop it out and back in again. I got Google Music working on it just fine though. If WiFi and Bluetooth were working though, I would really start using this ROM regularly as it seems to be a sturdy build, and not too many bugs, other than the occasional restarts when using messaging.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] goliath714:
WiFi and Bluetooth work just fine for me on this ROM...the only things that don't(so far) are the camera and hardware acceleration, and those are probably not able to be fixed. If WiFi isn't working for you in the newest version I would redownload and relash everything, making sure you wipe everything multiple times. Oh, and use the newest 5.5.0.4 recovery. As for the connecting the phone to your computer, are you running Vista? lol. That might be the problem...or you could try an RUU and re-root and start from scratch...that usually clears a lot of things up too.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aldude999:
I'll be more specific. I like to use Bluetooth Tethering a lot. Bluetooth does turn on, I'm just having trouble making it visible. I haven't really tried WiFi yet, but I did try WiFi hotspot and that didn't work.

I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate and back in CyanogenMod I was having no trouble. Yeah, It probably is time I update recovery. I still have 2.5.0.7 xP
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
Wiping partitions multiple times does nothing, and connecting to a computer without an app is a pretty well known ICS issue since they are no longer mounting as mass storage.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] goliath714:
In my personal experience, I've found that wiping once leaves things in the partition, for instance, I'll wipe my sd card and some of the files I had before the wipe still showed as being present. I just do it so nothing is left, only because I've had problems only wiping once before that were solved by wiping more than once. I guess I can't really say anything toward storage from ICS though, haven't tried it yet myself, just throwing out an idea. Good to know it's an ICS problem though.

On a side note, kyle what happened to you? You kinda dropped off the radar lol

---------- Post added at 09:24 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:16 AM ----------

Yeah those are issues that more than likely won't be solved for a while, unless you can somehow find and install the wireless tether apk from the market by muller, lemons, and buxton. Even then, not sure if it would work but it's worth a try. I think until this thing is more complete you might be better off using a completely stable 2.3.7 build like jaybobs teamheroc build. It's fantastic lol
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
Yea Google started using something called MTP in honeycomb that carried over into ICS, basically instead of having a system partition and an SD card it lumps them into one. This way if you have like 8gigs on an sd and 512mb of internal storage it lets you use all 8.5 gigs
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
Haha I'm still around, I just moved on from the hero a long time ago, infact when I did a lot of the work I did here my primary phone was an evo 4G and then I traded that for a 3D, I also have a shift too.

As far as for work I made a cm7 theme not long ago but other than that things outside of xda have been keeping me busy
[Hero CDMA Android Development] goliath714:

Looking at the radio logcat posted, the only thing that jumps out at first glance is the radio version. Your logcat shows 2.42.01.04.27, while I am currently at 2.42.02.10.29. Other than that, it looks like the radio processing is as expected.

I have seen some unexpected behavior if I try to start doing things too soon after boot. You might watch the normal logcat and wait until the messages are pretty much down to dalvik GC messages before making changes.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] etstanger:
I'm also running 2.42.02.10.29, but I'm still having trouble with the data menus
[Hero CDMA Android Development] ubnub82:
Seems faster in newer version. Tried out gbcoid but the media volume doesn't seem to work.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Mangani001:
Nice work.... I can't seem to get data and i've noticed that when i prees trhe power button to bring up the menu it always shows " airplane mode is on"... My phone seems to be putting itself into airplane mode.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thanku7:
thanks devs!! great work!!!

I feek it's faster than before. is it placebo? i don't know but I feel that as a user. I have no error message, but a pop-up saying 'TTS English blah blah.......'

it's stable. SetCPU 768/315? smartassv2. I can tell this ROM is a beta version.

thanks again, Devs!!

Ps. data & wifi & volumn are working fine for me.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] rizdog23:
Was wondering if anybody here had apktool/edit setup and if so, could you possible edit the systemUI.apk/frameworkRES to center the clock and put the status icons(3g,wifi) on the left with the notification icons on the right. If someone could do that, id be a very happy camper :D and transparent status bar wouldnt be bad either. But if nobody is up to it then im sorry for asking; just trying to make it even more beautiful.

Hello all,

I have flashed both the original and the updated versions and here are some observations. It would appear that some have radio issues and some do not, I am one who has radio issues. I am on the .29 radio and am in a strong Sprint coverage area. The first observation has been mentioned several times but the Random Offset seems to change every time you flash the rom. Without touching the phone or making any changes I have yet to have it recognize the Sprint network. The phone will start with "no service" and then change to "searching for service". I was able to bring up the phone status once (it usually crashes) and it showed the radio was off? When you press and hold the power button it will show airplane mode as "on" but no airplane icon is shown in the status bar. I tried flashing back to an old 2.1 sense rom and updated everything again but that also did not help. This is very strange...I have never experienced radio issues on this phone before?

Cheers
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Shakes27:
Working really well for something in alpha, market apps aren't working when I install them though, specifically the ics keyboard fix that was suggested. Also any plans to remove the pointer in a future release? Looks great, looking forward to this getting even better!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Drunkpilot:
I think the main goal is to get most everything working before doing any cosmetic or optimization upgrades. This rom is still very early in the development stage (hence the "alpha") and it will take some time and testing to get things working. I seem to remember a lot of the same issues happening during the initial stages of the Gingerbread build. I am amazed that there is already something that is running at all on the Heroc. I mean really...4.0? The reason I rooted is because we weren't getting 2.2 and I needed the upgrade to use my bluetooth completely hands free. You guys have opened a whole new world for me (especially you Jaybob) and given me a phone that I love. Thanks for all of the work and knowledge you have donated to us Devs- I really appreciate it and can't wait to see where this ICS ride takes us.

I've been away for a few days and can't wait to flash this before there's another update; I know how you guys work!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dreign:
im not sure if its already been asked but is anyone else having issues with syncing their gmail calendar?? Mine won't even give me the option in accounts & sync.

Beautiful rom. Having most of the same issues as everyone else. Data working. Install music player like win amp to fix music from earpiece issue.

Stackable dock is AWESOME.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Houndog101:
On boot I get to the "home screen" and then I get " unfortunately settings has stopped working" , I click OK and it just loops on that same error.

This is just an fyi as I know this is alpha. I also get a mouse pointer arrow that I can move with the track ball. At the top I get signal bars and am able to pull down notification bar.. I'm excited about this rom, looks really promising... :)

Updated my radio to 2.42.02.10.29 and ran FireRat's @ 170/40. Same thing :P no data or anything.

So hopefully the next update will magically fix my issue
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Majin101:
weird how some people getting no data, mine worked perfectly fine.. download apps ran it normally
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jschill31:
Hello,

There must be some common reason why only a few of us are experiencing radio issues? It will get figured out as long as people continue to share their findings. I will be following this closely since I have no service as soon as I flash the rom. If Jay or anyone have some ideas or possible fixes I can sure do some trials and report back...

Cheers
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Sippi4x4man:
I don't know that it's the radio specifically, but I cannot access the mobile network settings to enable roaming or to select home network. I do have data enabled but still no service
[Hero CDMA Android Development] etstanger:
This is the problem most of us are having, I think you might have said it better than others though. If I had to guess, it isn't a radio issue, its the settings FC'ing on us.

Question...is there no USB mass storage on ICS? My PC wasn't recognizing my phone as a separate drive once i got this ROM on there.

Probably a different issue, but adb wasn't recognizing my ICS hero either.

Just read the firerats documentation (never used it before). I plan on giving it a try tonight, is it easier than it reads? I'm not afraid of ADB and am a PC geek from way back. I've tried a few different ROMs on my phone and on my gTablet so I'm not worried about that part. And this doesn't touch the SD card, right? It's just playing with the internal memory partition tables as far as I can tell. Just getting my ducks in a row so I can play later. Thanks all!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dkelley:
from gsm forum, reading this to find tips on ics roms that we might try on gsm heros.

this post of yours is certainly a secret alright - it doesn't explain what will happen if we do your secret trick!

what does it do? fix something? show some kind of easter egg?

I'm interested :-)

Cheers

Don
[Hero CDMA Android Development] kyouko:
is it easier than it reads?

Yes, definitely. You just need the two zips (recovery & boot) and the mtdpart text file. Only thing could be kinda "difficult" would be figuring out your partition sizes. If you dont like having FR, just flash a new recovery and it goes away :)

And this doesn't touch the SD card, right?

Correct, the only thing that involves your SD card are the two FR zips and the mtd partition map text file
[Hero CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
That Easter egg has been in every version since gingerbread

OK, jumped in and I too have no service. .29 radio. Just more information. I'll probably flash back over to cm7 shortly since I have a non functioning phone. I'll keep watching and see what happens.

this is my experience from using this rom.

What steps did you take when loading this rom. I booted recovery, formated system/factory reset, format cache, format dalvik, load rom, reboot. No radio. No radio after 2nd and 3rd reboots. Just wondering if another round of cleansing is needed to remove any odd remnants on the rom image.
